Should I do Pockets or One Size for 2nd child?

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
hi Ladies!! I am new to CD and a little confused on my next step. My 2.8 year old wears CD One size BG and HH and I LOVE them!! He has 13 ONE SIZE diapers and I plan to get more but for right now it's been working well.. My question is I have a 6 month old and I want to start him on CDs... What should I do.. just get more One size so they can both share or get pocket diapers or AIO's that fit him now? What is easiest?? He wouldn't fit the same size as older brother now..
I'd appreciate any advice.. Thanks so much

Personally I hate one size diapers. They don't fit newborns and they don't fit older toddlers, so really you're still stuck buying more than one size. I'd rather just get sized diapers.

I would go for more one size diapers since you already know they fit both of your children. Your younger one is past the newborn stage and it seems like your toddler is small enough to to fit in them. I might be slightly biased though, because I am not a fan of pocket diapers. I feel like they are to much work, and honestly they don't seem to hold leaks as well as my fittted diapers. Of course that is just my personal experience with them, I'm sure there are others who feel the exact opposite. If I were you I would go with what you already know works. HTH, Alicia

I had two kids in diapers for quite a while and liked the convenience of one-sized pockets. I didn't have to sort them or keep track of whose was whose, I could just grab one and put it on the kid. My older DS wore them through PL, but the younger one I had to get some larger diapers for because he was a big kid after age 2, not a big deal though, I just did prefolds at that point.

I"d probably stay simple and get more one-sized pockets if you know that they work for you guys. I'm working on a one-size fitted for my kids, because I've found I"m more of a fitted/cover kind of fan, but eventually I'd like to work my way to more of a simplified stash of just one or two kinds of diapers. Right now I have a little of everything (though I do really think that is the best way to figure out what you like).

I agree with pps. Go with what you know and love, go with the convenience of any diaper in your stash fitting either child. Of course, if you want to try new things, then go for it , but it sounds like you're really happy with your BGs and HHs!
